These are the daily tech headlines for Wednesday, April 8, 2026. I'm Jen Kutter. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. Apple's foldable iPhone remains on track for a September launch. After all contrary to a report from Nikkei Asia on Tuesday. The Tuesday article stated the likely delay was due to issues in testing and possible parts procurement, Gurman sources shared. The Foldable is scheduled to debut in September alongside the introduction of the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, but production has not yet ramped up, meaning this info is not final. An Apple spokesperson declined to comment. The government of Greece announced children under 15 years old will be banned from accessing social media platforms beginning January 1, 2027. The legal framework is expected to be unveiled this summer. Greece's prime minister announced the upcoming ban in a video on TikTok in order to inform teens directly. The ban will not have exemptions for under 15s even with parental consent, with enforcement expected to be handled by a state mandated application installed on all personal devices. The legislation will also include protections from alcohol and tobacco promotion, explicit content and online gambling. Alibaba, in partnership with China Telecom, will launch a data center in southern China with 10,000 of its own chips, expected to expand to 100,000 chips in the future. China Telecom will operate the center using Alibaba's Renwu AI semiconductors designed for AI training and inferencing, able to support models with hundreds of billions of parameters. Facilities like this continue China's push to use technology developed within the country, avoiding American restrictions on exporting chips from companies like Nvidia, GoDaddy and Cloudflare announced a partnership to bring Cloudflare's AI crawl control to GoDaddy's hosting customers. The tool enables site owners to control how AI bot crawlers can interact with a site's content or with option to allow or block access or even charge a fee. GoPro, makers of action cameras and editing software, will cut 23% of its workforce, approximately 145 employees, by the end of 2026. The move is expected to cut costs by up to $15 million. GoPro posted a decline of 2020 five year end revenue, including a $9 million loss in the fourth quarter. GoPro, previously the market leader, now competes closely with Insta360DJI and the improved durability of smartphone cameras for capturing footage during intense physical endeavors. Google announced new features for Google Photos on Android, including an AI enhanced tool rolling out gradually to all users worldwide. The tool offers a one tap button to correct lighting, contrast and color. The other update enables users to adjust video playback speed, a long requested feature with options from 0.5 to 2 times speed. No word on if the update will come to the iOS version. Valve's Steam link is coming to the Apple Vision Pro, enabling Vision Pro users to play games streamed on their local network for Mac or PC. Ars Technica notes. This works for the streaming of traditional games as played on a regular monitor and and does not currently support streaming VR titles. Valve says this version of Steam Link can stream up to 4K resolutions and dynamically adjusts the display curve for panoramic mode. Users can sign up to use the app through Apple's test flight before it is officially released on the App Store, and Amazon emailed older model Kindle users to inform them about the upcoming end of support date. Kindle and Fire tablet users with models released in 2012 or earlier can continue to read books on the devices but will be unable to purchase, borrow or download new titles as of May 20, 2026. Also important to know is that a factory reset or deregistering of a device will make it unusable. Engadget obtained a comment from Amazon stating the end of support notice affects approximately 3% of users. The notification email also contains a code for 20% off more recent Kindle devices and and ebook credits if a new model is purchased by June 20th.
